Pro-Hamas College Protests Are A Rich Kid Movement

Of the 1,421 public and private nonprofit colleges that we ranked, 318 have had protests and 123 have had encampments.

By matching that data to percentages of students at each campus who receive Pell Grants, we came to an unsurprising conclusion: Pro-Palestinian protests have been rare at colleges with high percentages of Pell students.

A few outliers exist, such as Cal State Los Angeles, the City College of New York, and Rutgers University-Newark.

In the vast majority of cases, campuses that educate students mostly from working-class backgrounds have not had any protest activity.

At the 78 historically Black colleges and universities on the Monthly's list, 64 percent of the students, on average, receive Pell Grants.

Out of the hundreds of private colleges where more than 25 percent of the students receive Pell Grants, only five colleges have had encampments.

Another factor of course is that the pro-Hamas riots were also driven by faculty involvement and the kind of faculty who push this stuff come out of radical departments that cater to students studying Lesbian Poetry in the age of Taylor Swift or Third World Marxism which are, in short, not likely to enroll working class students.
